John Fritchey and I engaged in an email exchange a couple weeks ago that brought him as close as possible to understanding the consequences of his bill to gut parental notice in IL.
I prayed John would fully grasp his bill’s ramifications if he had been duped by Planned Parenthood. I prayed he would do the right thing and back off.
But John did not. And he was not duped. He said during the House committee hearing this week he understood some of the “counselors” his bill would allow aside from parents were Planned Parenthood agents at the abortion mill.
And that’s just one hole in John’s bill to allow abortion of young girls to continue unabated in Illinois without the “interference”of their parents - or judges if they were incest victims.
In the late 1700’s, as Fran mentioned in her post, a man named John Newton, plagued by the ghosts of 20,000 slaves he had trafficked on a slave ship, yet finally redeemed from his torment by God, wrote:
Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
Some day without doubt John Fritchey will be tormented by ghosts of aborted children and their young tortured mothers if he pursues passage of his bill. I guarantee that.
But it's not too late to see.
